(...) So what are you saying? 0.0737087601KG in G is about 73 G. thats means, (useing your chart) with 3 motors, and 1 rcx, you have 73 grams left. with 73 grams, you can have 1 lx, one touch and one rotation sensor, (20 g) that leaves you with 53 (...)

(...) Based on these results, and adding a third old gear motor, I get 0.8375 LB So, that leaves 0.1625 LB (1)(2) for sensors and parts.

Not a lot of room in there. (...) (20 years ago, 29-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
